 		GRRR!

I am fairly confident I know the five books, but for some reason, I can't get the right combination.

I know book 2 has two titles and I used the one with the main character's name, but book 4 seems to have at least two variations (maybe 3).

Can anyone confirm if any of the answers remove 'the' from the traditional titles?

DiG...

#2 I found using the search string '"birthday picnic" landaus motor car' in google, which led me to the wrong name of the right book.
#4 I used '"wicked princes" tortoise'
Even when I had found both of them, I wasn't 100% sure on either.


his hint for #2 is the ONLY thing that would have helped me. Wink

 		Every time I search on the MLI clue (and it was mine so apologies if it doesn't work for you) I get the same thing on google.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
She isn't the author, but she wrote about the author. You may be on the right track but this one wasted me a go as this book has 2 names from this route, so be careful.

Yeah, for some reason pluralising 'Landau' makes all the difference, 'coz lord knows I drove myself slightly bonkers googling for it...

 		I searched for landau, picnic and dogcart and found a link to MILFHunter - I can safely assume that isn't right . . .

 		I am so annoyed with this card. Can someone check my answers and tell me where i'm going wrong:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
1. The da vinci code - Brown
2.Henrietta's house - goudge
3. The count of monte cristo - dumas
4. The land of green ginger - langley
5. The little broomstick - stewart

I keep typing this in exactly and keep getting locked out. I want to get this card solved. I'm sure they are right but I'm having a problem with punctuation, does all punctuation need to be entered. Also does the word "the" need to be entered.
